  1. Great news, never ran the CPT marathon but might when I am in my prime. Heard there is a part of the route which is slow can't remember if it is cobbels but if they can change the route to become ultra fast like Berlin, London it will definitely feature in the Top 5 globally
  2. This is very tempting as I am in Cape Town that weekend.. My only concern is normally with 12 000 people collecting your race number is a massive process now that want to add testing to the mix
  3. Is the de Bod pic legit, can't seem to find it on twitter or instagram. Any idea what time difference the suit really makes ? Know its massive in swimming just curious if there is such a big difference in TT
  4. The Aftershokz Aeropex bone has great reviews just not sure how it will work for running, looking for a good all rounder as I also listen to podcast but for this I can always use standard headphones.
  5. Thanks was looking at the Elite 85t they were on sale on Amazon day but missed it might have to wait for Black Friday
  6. Hey Guys Looking for a pair of new wireless headphones for running and cycling. I currently have Jaybird Vista which is great but doesn't work properly with my Garmin Forerunner 945. I usually use just one headphone so i can hear traffic but I think some of the new headphones have a feature where you can hear traffic. Any recommendations ?
  7. Hey Guys, has anyone tried the asics gel-cumulus 23 ? I have always run with the asics gel nimbus and inners but I see the cumulus is on sale at Sportsmans Warehouse and it appears to be the same shoe just slightly cheaper and a bit softer ?

    Flat pedals

    Flat pedals

    Looking for pedals like the link above that you can clip in both sides but has a larger flat portion so you can ride semi comfortably using a normal shoe like for a short commute. I have used these ryders below but not great for a race when mud gets in you shoe you can only cleat in one side which sucks. https://solomonscycles.co.za/products/ryder-mtb-dual-2-0/?dTribesID=1gpkaHc5hCxGz1dYzluHVQl3ywMDJrXp|adtribes|39899&utm_source=Google Shopping&utm_campaign=Google Merch &utm_medium=cpc&utm_term=39899

    Flat pedals

    Hey guys I am looking flat pedals but one's that can clip in both sides for a mountain bike. I know Shimano had trail pedals like this a couple of years ago but can't seem to find them... Reason is commuting to work once or twice a week (5km) and then riding on weekends where I need normal pedals. Thank s

    Hey guys probably left the training a bot late, with regards to tapering how long before the race should you avoid a long hard ride ? 1. Rest required for legs ? 2. Rest required for bum ? Thanks
  13. Hey guys looking to do a 10k sub 40min in Aug / Sep (training to start in June). I see Garmin has some good progarmmes otherwise I might buy one of Ben Parkes websites. You guys have any recommendations ?
  14. Probably March or April, not sure why they are delaying the inevitable. Still hope the race goes ahead with only pro's but doubt they have the financial muscle like the overseas races
  15. https://www.buycycle.co.za/apparel-en-2/clothing-and-footwear/shorts/dimension-data-2018-bibshort-mens/ Hey guys is there any difference between road bibs and mountain bike bibs ? Anyone tried these ?
  16. https://www.takealot.com/delonghi-bean-to-cup-coffee-machine-esam2200/PLID46899162 https://www.takealot.com/philips-series-2200-fully-automatic-espresso-machine/PLID56936353 https://www.takealot.com/delonghi-dedica-manual-pump-espresso-machine-ec685-black/PLID58970092 I see a few deals on takealot this morning, any machines you guys can recommend ?
  17. Found these old ASA rules and they don't mention anything about qualification (I am referring to the 56km race) https://athletics.org.za/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/2019-ASA-Rules-Regulations-Changes-in-red-June-2018-Final-draft.pdf Just saw the entry limit for 21km + 56km is 29 000 people so I doubt the race will be open to the public maybe just a few pro's like some of the international races did earlier this year
  18. Hey guys, anyone know if an official statement has been released with regards to the Two Oceans next year ? I can't find anything online and I assume everyone will need to qualify which means time is running out and it probably won't happen next year in April ?
  19. Anyone used a massage gun or can recommend something similar ? https://www.pulsepro.co.za/
  20. Anyone have a 1 mile Pb training program they can recommend ?
  21. https://abcnews.go.com/GMA/Wellness/pregnant-woman-ran-mile-minutes-week-due-date/story?id=73697588 Health concerns apart if this run is legit it is an amazing achievement... Current record for a mile is 6min and after watching this I only have one goal this year and that is to run a 5:20 mile
  22. https://athleticsweekly.com/event-news/live-stream-cheptegei-10000m-world-record-assault-1039935616/ Cheptegei trying to run the 10km under 26,20 machine
  23. Anyone tried one of these Sportful bibs ? https://www.sportful.co.za/collections/sportful-24-september-arrival/products/sportful-giara-bib-short-mens-2020-21?variant=32177235558494 Want a decent bib and then one Assos one.
  24. Can only think of Hunter, Impey and Meintjies... Not sure if there was anyone in the 90's / early 2000's
